Dear God no…

Sounds like the best Batt could do said no. Plenty of rumors as to why. Depending on which ones are true, I could see Fritz happening instead of Key just to not be the booster pick, maybe from a mix of not wanting them running the show and spite.
Shades of the Auburn AD hiring Harsin over the booster‘s preferences, we saw how that öööö worked out
 
This season has been wildly successful for the Green Wave. It has been a rebuild to be sure. The cold hard numbers don't tell the whole story. He took over a successful program at Southern and had good success, expanding their offensive playbook while sticking with option concepts, including some triple option plays. I believe that they took UGA to overtime one year with Fritz as coach, though I may be wrong. He has recruited the state of Georgia, and I think it would be dumb to not consider the guy at least.

He has demonstrated growth as a head coach and has lots of good experience. If Tech wants to go with a spread offense, he is probably the guy they should go with of they don't get Chadwell.

My personal hope is that GTAA ponies up and pays him a nice salary to be offensive coordinator while keeping Key on as HC--maybe a Dabo/Venables type situation. It probably is a ridiculous idea, but I don't mind dreaming
How about we keep Key, keep Thacker, demote Long to analyst or TE coach maybe, then get Willie Korn (Coastal OC) as our OC
